"A plugin called "Chau_SceneStabilizer" (version 3.0.2) might solve the problem. Two other plugins could also improve the lags, these are... SDR_GameUpgrade together with SDR_PreloaderCore (you must configure the audios in the latter so that it is loaded). Oh, and use Yep_FpsSynchOption.

There are other plugins, but from my tests, they were inferior to the ones I mentioned, such as "Galv_ImageCache", "Dread_audioFix", "Lily_Preload", "KickoutParallaxesfromcache" and others."


I was playing Rise Of Corruption (a good game) (and others that also had this problem)) but as it kept freezing so much I ended up giving up, I ended up finding this but can I import these plugins to other games? If so, how? (I'm not a programmer, if there's a step-by-step guide for idiots I'm in)

"Chau_SceneStabilizer" can apparently be used with whatever version of RPG Maker MV.
"SDR_GameUpgrade" I don't know, you quoted the only post known by Google that contain its name.
"SDR_PreloaderCore" apparently only works for version of RPG Maker MV before the 1.6.1.

So, as long as the said other games are made with RPG Maker MV, you should be able to at least use the first one.

.


This being said, apparently freeze with RPG Maker MV are due to a too high refresh rate for the monitor. And there's , including possible fixes, still on RPG Maker site.

As an additional suggestion, for random screen freezes that can occur in RPG MV games, this other plug-in seems to also be fairly appropriate to apply.



^ Not sure if the above fix has been playtested with Rise of Corruption, but might be worth installing to find out.

Yeah, I recall seeing that post as well :sneaky: :coffee:

They introduced a :

I.e.,

JavaScript:
(function () {

  var _render = Graphics.render;
  Graphics.render = function (stage) {
    if (this._skipCount < 0) {
      this._skipCount = 0;
    }
    _render.call(this, stage);
  };
})();
And in the past few months (Dated in Sept, 2024) also reported the issue of monitors having high refresh rates >60HZ causing random screen freezing problems.

These three plugins tend to break way more then they fix, and should really never be used. Most preloaders should be avoided, minus galv's image cache. They're near entirely unnecessary, and wouldn't fix any freezing issues. They might actually cause more of them.

If the cause is actually the monitor refresh rate, it should be possible to fix the issue without plugin, just by changing the said refresh rate, no?
That's the most user friendly way.

The other two ways are either decrypting the game and using RPGM to put it in, or by putting the plugin above into the www/js/plugins folder, then in www/js open plugins.js in something like notepad++ or atom. Add this to the bottom of the file. (This works for any plugin, you just have to replace the plugin name.)
Code:
{"name":"MAC_High_Hz_Fixes","status":true,"description":"Fixed various issues on high refresh rate monitors","parameters":{}},
I hesitate to recommend this because I have no idea what other plugins those games use, and how compatible they are. Use at your own risk and such.

First let me tell you, I love your game, it's so cute
I'm downloading more games on RPG Maker and if it happens again I'll test it (in two games I tested (Rise of Corruption and Behind the Truth: The Reckoning) I couldn't install these plugins as a user.

I'll take a look and start playing with a refresh rate of 40 on my pc it's either 40 or 60
Yeah, maybe just play around with the refresh rate settings on your monitor. Get it down to a more acceptable threshold, and perhaps a plugin may not be needed after all (y)

I'm banned from the RPG Maker forum because it hasn't been a long time since I've been on it.(actually my email provider was banned)

I'll see if I can find MAC_High_Hz_Fixes outside the RPG Maker forum. If so, I'll use that (After all, I already modify the plugins before playing). If not, I'll go and reduce it.
